Graffiti Life was co-founded by David Speed, Iona Thomas and Adam Brazier to create murals on company walls, advertising and even corporate workshops. Today, the leading graffiti and street art collective work for the likes of Disney, L’Oréal , YouTube and Microsoft. Adam and business partner David Speed started their wildly successful podcast Creative Rebels 2 years ago working with Apple, Adobe and D&AD. But all of that clearly isn’t enough him, Adam is also a fashion photographer. Adam works with London’s top models agencies, celebrities, influencers and shot covers internationally for Women’s Health and Beast magazines. Adam’s Takeaways 1.Stay curious, it’s key to growth and longevity  2.If you feel triggered, for whatever reason- that other artist or your reactions to their amazing work, if it’s going to slow down your work and journey, it’s ok to switch off any distractions. Be honest with yourself. You can go back to it when you’re more confident with your work. 3.There’s always a beans and noodles stage, it’s normally the most brave fun and fancy free stage!  4.Does this excite you? If so, you have to double down on that 5.When you’re spending too much time on social media, ask yourself, am I a creator or a consumer? 6.Ask yourself this ‘am I spending way too much time on social media and less time on developing my craft?  7.Only consume content that will inspire you!  8.It’s ok to be an introvert, start looking at the gifts you’re creating for the world, it’s a game changer when you get out of your own head and start to feel it’s not about you and it’s about them. 9.Design a life that you don’t need to go on holiday away from!  10.Try all of your interests, if it doesn’t work it doesn’t work! How will you know you’re purpose of you didn’t try that thing?  11.Things will fail! Are you going to learn from it or let it stop you forever?  12.You no doubt learnt a new skill or met new contacts through that ‘failed’ project. Think of failure as re-direction!

Everyone can learn to turn their creative passions into a business. In this episode of Just Keep Learning, David Speed of Creative Rebels UK talks about how to build a creative business, especially if school isn't for you. Other advice includes how to ignore the haters and become successful in pursuing your passions, starting a podcast and much more!We tackle how to get started with monetization of your creativity. But we also go deep on the way the education system fails so many of us and talk a lot about how to start a podcast.In this episode, David talks about dark times and how learning to becoming a better painter helped him regain happiness. He shares his experiences with learning, inspiration from his dad about being an entrepreneur, becoming a public speaker and much more.We appreciate you being here! Be sure to leave the podcast, “Just Keep Learning” ratings and reviews because it will help people who need it be better able to find it. Also, if you want a shoutout, simply share an image of the episode, you listening, or your takeaways and share it @JustTries anywhere on social.Episode NotesWe discussed the idea that creative people are often made to feel like outsiders. The right brain, random, creative rebels are people who just want to be free to share their art. But, how do you monetize this? How do you pay the bills and support your family long term with a creative career?We discuss the concepts of patience, perseverance and knowing your own big dreams when it comes to building the life you want, instead of what other people tell you to do. David has proved to the world that this can be done and one of his greatest passions is sharing how to do this with youth, teachers, parents and companies to help them do it for themselves.David talks about how mainstream education was built as a system to fuel factories with workers a hundred years ago. We talk about how important learning is and what the difference is compared to education. Learning is everything. David also has a pretty wise belief that learning leads to mental health. It seems roundabout, but it's not. If you're engaged with lifelong learning, then you will progress in your passions and as you make progress you will feel happiness more often. One of the main things that ran throughout this episode was the concept of how to start a podcast yourself.Keys To Starting A PodcastOur rule was that we only do in person podcasts. But we realized it's better to be flexible, and use things like Zoom calls to overcome barriers to working with guests. And when you think about it, some of the biggest one's like Tim Ferris have always been remote.Pick a name and go with it, use the best equipment that you currently have and get started, that's the best way to learn and build at the beginning.Don't listen to the haters, or those that don't care about the show. They don't matter. People will judge you for starting a podcast but you don't want them in your audience anyways.When it comes to the information you discuss and share be sure to keep the end user in mind. What do your listeners like to hear and in what format? As you grow to understand your audience your show will evolve and adjust. It's ok to get creative, but be on topic and on point for them more often than you are not.One thing about the type of content you make for your show, and it's amazing is that podcasts are evergreen. So, that means that as a show grows and more people are exposed to it, they can always go back and find earlier episodes. The key is to build content that you know once you develop a following and subscriber base that you are leaving things they will still love to go listen to.When it comes to getting people on your show, potential guests are busy, so I understand them being protective of their time. At the same time, you know, I think it's totally worth the effort to just try, because if you ask a hundred people, one of them will say yes. It becomes a numbers game.To grow your show, don't go chasing followers. This way you will build an engaged audience that truly cares what you are building. What you should do is plant as many flags as possible. A flag is every piece of content, or networking interaction you have. Touch points with potential supporters and collaborators. Doing this more and more ensures that opportunities and support for your work will flow to you. It's always worth planting the flag because you never know who will see it.School TalkSchool was not the right fit for David. He made it through, but for a world class artist, he only ever got C's in his favorite subject of art. In main school he felt like an outsider who didn't belong. Even in art he was never considered good. In fact, one teacher told him that he needed to find a “realistic” job because painting wasn't an actual career.We got to talking about how the ones who are supposed to be lifting us up are also the ones with direct access to tear us down. It's the people like David, who find something deep inside to keep pursuing their passion. They continue to follow their dream in the face of hater and push on. We talked about why this might be. Perhaps it was the influence of his father who followed and monetized his trade as a career as well. Or simply the fact that he knew painting would bring him mental health at a minimum. We also discussed Andria Zafirakou, an art educator who won teacher of the year in 2018 and often buys supplies with her own money so her students can access creative passions like painting and drawing. It's teachers like this who bring the things that really light a student's soul on fire into the classroom that make a real difference.How To Start A PodcastDavid reminds us that success in any creative field is dependent on the amount of work and focus we put into it. The only way to get better at podcasting is to create a podcast. Just get started. Don't slow down to think too long about a name, equipment, or who your guest will be.When it comes to building a following realize that this will take a three year plan in many cases. If you work hard for three years, put in the consistent effort you simply will be successful. But one of the most important things to keep in mind is the feelings of the end user. Get feedback on what people like, don't like and learn how to improve, pivot and get more feedback. The best approach we can make is to implement the design approach to our business and podcast life. Memorable Quotes“My advice to people choosing a podcast name would be pick something and go with it, because too many people spend six months wondering what it's going to be called, when they could just be recording. At the end of the day, the name is not important.”“Learning is everything, I think that so much of happiness is built up in progression, and I think the more that you progress, the happier you can become. And I think that comes from learning.”“Whatever your dream is, there's a person on the planet who will make that happen for you. You just don't have access to that person yet.”Guest BioIn 2010 he started his first business, Graffiti Life. They started as two street artists taking their talents to paint residential bedrooms, but quickly realized that a move to more corporate settings would make the business more scalable and feed more artists.At this time they pivoted to networking with larger businesses and it worked. In the years that followed we have generated a massively successful business. Our team has grown from three to fifteen and we regularly make art for global brands like Nike, L'Oreal and Disney.David started the podcast as a way to share their business with potential customers. But, the main reason was to help people learn to start their own creative businesses.Alongside his business partner and fellow creative rebel Adam, he started the Creative Rebels Podcast.Creative Rebels launched to number 1 in the business charts. It has also been featured on Apple's ‘New and Noteworthy', ‘Be your own boss' and as one of iTunes recommended business podcasts. The show has also been featured by Spotify as the top podcast for ‘Fuel Your Creativity'.FOLLOW DAVIDInstagram - @davidspeedukTwitter - @davidspeedukLinkedIn - DavidSpeedukFOLLOW REBELS CREATEInstagram- @RebelsCreateFOLLOW JUSTIN (JustTries)Instagram - @JustTriesYouTube - Just TriesTwitter - @JustTries_Tiktok -  @justtriesPinterest - JustTriesFacebook - Just TriesCONNECT WITH JUST KEEP LEARNINGInstagram - @JustKeepLearning.CaTiktok -  @justkeeplearning.caFacebook - Just Keep LearningFree Group - JKL Goal Setting CommunityConnect with Justin:  To join our texting community for secrets and motivation to help you for FREE, just text +1 (313) 710-5499Best Remote Interview Recording Software: SquadcastWe appreciate you being here! Be sure to leave the podcast, “Just Keep Learning” ratings and reviews because it will help people who need it be better able to find it.

Today is another unique episode of No Labels, No Limits podcast where we have gathered three impactful, creative guests from past episodes. We interview Anne Sugar (an executive coach and speaker who advises top leaders), David Speed (founder of Graffiti Life, a creative company that makes art of all kinds for big brands, both inside and out), and Melissa Agnes (a leading authority on crisis preparedness, reputation management, and brand protection).Each guest leaves us with a few thoughts and ideas that we might carry through our daily lives. Listen in to the episode and find some words of wisdom below.Anne says, "Part of being creative or thinking about new ideas is having the space to put something out there. An idea that's messy and not very good, but all those ideas over time create big opportunities, right? So how, and it's so simple in the sense of there's so much we could talk about, trust and respect, all of that, but it's just simply having somebody's back, right?"Learn more about Anne here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anne-sugar-064564/https://twitter.com/aasugarwww.annesugar.com https://hbr.org/2018/04/how-to-welcome-an-employee-back-from-medical-leave David’s interview was so interesting and he gives us some background and bits of advice on the origin of his creativity when he says, "Your journey, every step that you take, gets you to where you are. Our failures have made us stronger, make us no longer vulnerable in those areas where we failed in the past because we've been able to learn from our mistakes in the dark.

She explains why - "It's fun to see yourself through the lens of other people because all I have is my own lens. What you think is normal, other people don't.

Another unique guest today! I’d like to introduce David Speed, the founder of Graffiti Life; a creative company that makes art of all kinds for big brands, both inside and out. The company was created with the mission of empowering artists and creatives, which remains a core value to this day. He is also the host of the 'Creative Rebels' podcast, providing the next generation of creatives with tangible advice to turn their passion into a career, which debuted at #1 in the iTunes business charts.  David’s interview was so interesting and he gives us some background and bits of advice on the origin of his creativity. He says, "Creativity is problem-solving. And that's where my creativity has come from. It's a habit. It's practice and it's just something that I've worked on and cultivated over a long period. That's the other thing, people get disheartened when they don't see progression quick enough. It's just having that blind faith in knowing 'if I continue, I will get better'. I think most people just don't have what it takes to just keep going on that track. That is part of my mission - to just tell people to just keep going. The people that keep going, they are the ones that win. Simple as that, in business, in art, in everything." “Your journey, every step that you take, gets you to where you are. Our failures have made us stronger, make us longer vulnerable in those areas where we failed in the past because we've been able to learn from our mistakes in the dark. If you keep going, great things will come.” Connect with David here: http://graffitilife.co.uk twitter @davidspeeduk from @graffiti_life Instagram @davidspeeduk from @graffiti_life  @rebelscreate podcast See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Well, this episode has got me nostalgic for London trains, tubes, bridges and underpasses that were covered in graffiti in the 90s.  As one of the graffiti writers says in the incredible 1983 documentary Style Wars, that my guest David Speed mentions in this episode, once he'd tagged a subway carriage, it'd take his work all over the city, to people who'd never heard of him, who'd probably never meet him. And yet. His work was out there.  Graffiti was the analogue internet - along with literature. (h/t Maria Popova: https://www.theeuropean-magazine.com/maria-popova/8840-maria-popova-on-information-in-the-digital-age) Graffiti artist in the 90s, now a street artist in the teenies, David Speed has just scored a major podcasting victory with his with his co-presenter Adam Brazier: Creative Rebels has been out for a month, and already shot to No.1 in Apple Podcasts' Business chart, and they're chilling out in New & Noteworthy, the best place for a podcast to get discovered.

In 2010 we started our first business, Graffiti Life. Back then; there were no real community platforms, advice or relevant podcasts. We started our business with a canvas on an easel, handing out business cards on the high street. In the years that followed we have generated a massively successful business. Our team has grown from three to fifteen and we regularly make art for global brands like Nike, L'Oreal and Disney. We've also expanded in other ways. We've opened a tattoo studio, a company focused on creative out of home advertising, an interior design project and a gardening club, amongst other things! We are often emailed by artists and creatives asking advice. This is why we have decided to make the Creative Rebels podcast; to empower the next generation of creatives. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/creativerebels/message
